How have I changed?

• My hair is crazier than ever.
• 
• Really focused on balancing blogging, work & kids. Also usually looking for something to do with the kids. Sometimes I blog about it. Other times it’s okay to leave it off of the blog.
• Definitely look at the calendar more this year. I have a blog calendar and a real life calendar.
• There is no shame in wearing comfortable shoes. These shoes are not comfortable.
• I got to interview a couple of bands. It was so much fun. Can’t wait to do it again.
• I also learned that if I want something, like photo passes or an extra toy, it doesn’t hurt to ask. Blogging has perks sometimes.
• Sometime this year, I have adopted the “Go Big or Go Home” attitude. So I share and talk about feeeelings on the blog. It has been cathartic.
• Need knee pads in photo pit. I’m not getting any younger but I’m still fun.
• I have also learned that I would do the blog even if I never got paid. By the way, I don’t get paid. I should though, right. 😉

How do you get through anger?

Oh my glob! When I’m really angry, I cry, throw socks at my mirror, slam doors and scream into my pillow.  Let’s not forget the talking through my teeth.

It’s terrible. I’m usually so disgusted with the theatrics that I cry some more. It’s all truly dramatic.

Sometimes I call my mom, who tells me to quit being a baby. Basically, “Suck it up Buttercup.” Then I watch something funny. Other times I’ll write something or listen to music. Taking photographs makes me feel less like throwing a tantrum. Seriously, if I drop the camera, I would be devastated. Then I’m back to square one with getting through the anger.

If none of that works, then it’s naptime.

I look so ticked off in this picture. The right shoes can make of break your day.

Make a commitment to give yourself an hour of undivided self-attention this week, and tell us how you’re going to use that time.

For the NaBloPoMo Me time this week, I would like to do one of the following things.

1. Get a haircut.

2. Go to the comic book store. They are probably starting to wonder where I’ve been.

3. Buy some new lipstick

4. Make a Wonder Woman costume

5. Get a pumpkin spice latte. It will be mine!
